Questions:

1. Assume you are hired to manage a VERY large IT project such as the initial creation of Amazon.com. Write a paragraph describing the project and then provide a list of the stakeholders for the project and describe their relative level of control of the project and why they have that level of control.  Try to choose a topic unique from everyone else in the class
2. Write a paragraph describing a hypothetical project scenario and then provide an example of a change for each of the following categories: 

External Event

Error or omission in scope of product

Error or omission in scope of project

Value-added change

Risk response

1. Give an example of a project that is driven by each of the following needs. (Each need should have a different project described.) 

Marketing Demand

Business Need

Customer Request

Technological Advance

Legal Requirement

Social Need

4. Develop a work breakdown structure for a project identified in any of the other conference threads.  Include at least three levels in your diagram.  (It is more beneficial to create the structure from someone else's paragraph than from a project you thought up on your own...as you are rarely the client AND the project manager)
